Sad to see this happen to a great project like this, I guess I will have to take it off my recommendation list for windows admins. I did a little bit of looking around and it seems there was never a public source repository created for the sourceforge project so it looks like there will not be a fork of the project. I know everyone has to make a buck but I am a big believer in open source software one reason why I love Debian so much. I have never found anything like this for Linux. I use a combination of tsclient and rdesktop from my Linux workstations. I would love to hear if someone finds another good open source project like this for Windows or Linux as I make software recommendations all the time to fellow sysadmins. If I find a replacement I will post it here but I am back to being a full time Linux admin/developer/architect so I doubt I will stumble across anything. Rob,

Besides I believe that mRemote isn't really freeware anymore. Indeed it is a great tool, but I’m really curious if there is a Linux equivalent around.
